  • One typical rotor construction for permanent magnet synchronous motors (also known as brushless PM motors) consists of a substantially cylindrical core of ferromagnetic material, such as laminated steel, with arc magnets attached to the surface facing the motor air-gap and the stator. From a magnetic point of view, such a motor is substantially non-salient, the values of the d and q axis inductances being approximately the same.
  • a motor of this construction is preferably operated so that the phasor of the stator current is aligned with the q axis in order to deliver maximum torque per ampere.
  • typical rotor constructions are of the interior type, where the magnets are inserted within the rotor core and magnetized radially, in a configuration typically denoted as IPM (interior permanent magnet), or magnetized tangentially in a configuration typically referred to as “spoke”, because of the resemblance of the magnets position with the spokes of a wheel.
  • IPM internal permanent magnet
  • spoke magnetized tangentially in a configuration typically referred to as “spoke”
  • a motor of this construction When driven by an electronic controller, a motor of this construction is preferably operated so that the phasor of the stator current has, in addition to the q-axis current component, a demagnetizing d-axis component in order to take advantage of the reluctance torque and further improve the torque output.
  • the saturation of the q-axis armature flux path which tends to be rather high in conventional IPM motors, reduces the q-axis inductance and the reluctance torque.
  • the IPM constructions have advantages over the surface mounted magnet designs in terms of improved performance and manufacturability as well as reduced cost.
  • some of the motors already in production or operating in the field are of the surface mounted magnet type.
  • a surface mounted permanent magnet rotor cannot be replaced with an IPM rotor as the motor controls are not necessarily compatible and the motor parameters and the optimal operation points differ between the two motors, as previously explained.
  • the present rotor is configured to allow an existing controller that, for example, only commands the q-axis current to control the new IPM rotor and motor.
  • the present rotor can also be employed in motors controlled with “square wave” currents, typically referred to as brushless DC motors.
  • the IPM motor has substantially the same values for some of the parameters, e.g. back-emf and d-axis inductance, as a motor with a surface mounted PM rotor.
  • the IPM motor can be made fully interchangeable with a legacy product incorporating a surface mounted permanent magnet rotor (SPM).
  • SPM surface mounted permanent magnet rotor
  • Both the IPM and the SPM motor typically employ a stator with a core built of ferromagnetic material, such as laminated electric steel (cold rolled electric motor steel) and a winding that can be of the distributed or the concentrated type.
  • the stators that are employed in conjunction with the IPM and the SPM rotor, respectively, can be different, e.g. can have different dimensions, number of slots, grade of steel etc. It is preferable that the type of winding, distributed or concentrated, is the same for the two motors as this influences the range of values for the inductances.
  • a relative axial skew is provided between the stator and the rotor.
  • the magnets or the magnetization are skewed, while for the IPM motor the stator core can be skewed.
  • the mechanical air-gap length defined as the minimum radial distance between the stator core and the magnet or the rotor core is the same for the two different motor constructions.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates a motor 10 that includes a stator 15 and a rotor 20 .
  • the stator 15 is supported within a housing 25 and defines a rotor opening 30 sized to receive the rotor 20 and define a desired air gap 35 therebetween.
  • the rotor 20 includes a core 40 that supports permanent magnets 45 configured to induce rotation of the rotor 20 in response to a flow of electrical current through the stator 15 .
  • the core 40 of the IPM rotor 20 includes a plurality of laminations 50 stacked in a lengthwise or stackwise direction 33 to define the core 40 .
  • FIG. 1 illustrates one lamination 50 suited for use in forming the core 40 .
  • the lamination 50 includes several V-shaped magnet slots 55 with each magnet slot 55 sized to receive permanent magnet material such as two substantially rectangular magnets 45 .
  • the illustrated construction includes six V-shaped slots 55 , thus defining six pole portions 56 with more or fewer being possible depending on the motor design.
  • the construction in FIG. 1 employs two magnets 45 per pole portion 56 with fewer magnets 45 or more magnets 45 per pole portion 56 being suitable for use if desired.
  • the magnets 45 are illustrated as being artificially small for purposes of illustration. However, as one of ordinary skill will realize, the magnets 45 are generally sized to tightly fit within the slots 55 to inhibit unwanted movement of the magnets 45 .
  • the extremities 60 of the slots 55 are typically not filled with permanent magnet material and they are profiled to inhibit the magnets 45 from moving within the slot 55 and are designed to define a bridge 65 between two adjacent slots 55 to reduce the magnet leakage flux.
  • the extremities 60 include an angled portion 70 that is arranged in a direction that is substantially normal to an outer surface 75 of the lamination 50 adjacent the extremity 60 .
  • a protrusion 80 extends into the V-shaped slot 55 to narrow the slot width adjacent each of the extremities 60 and inhibits movement of the magnets 45 into the extremities 60 .
  • non-magnetic material could be positioned or injected into the extremities 60 to inhibit unwanted movement of the magnets 45 .
  • the V-shaped slots 55 cooperate with the outer circular surface 75 of the lamination 50 to define a space 82 .
  • Each space 82 defines several apertures 85 , or flux barriers, that extend through the lamination 50 .
  • the apertures 85 are each shaped like elongated ovals with rectangular, elliptical, or other shaped apertures also being suitable for use.
  • the apertures 85 define flux passages 86 on either side thereof and thereby operate to guide the magnetic flux in the desired direction.
  • three apertures 85 are formed in each space 82 .
  • the middle of the three apertures 85 is longer than the two outer apertures 85 with all three apertures 85 having a similar width.
  • the middle aperture 85 defines a long axis 90 that is substantially radial. That is to say, the long axis 90 is substantially coincident with a radial axis 220 of the lamination 50 .
  • the two outer apertures 85 each define long axes 95 that are substantially parallel to the long axis 90 of the middle aperture 85 .
  • the outer apertures 85 of each space 82 are disposed an equal distance from the middle aperture 85 .
  • the lamination 50 of FIG. 1 also includes a plurality of circular apertures 100 disposed radially inward of the slots 55 .
  • the apertures 100 can be used to improve the mechanical integrity of the core such as by receiving a tie bolt, can be left empty, can be filled with non-magnetic material, or can be omitted entirely.
  • FIG. 1 also includes irregular or kidney-shaped holes 105 placed between a shaft aperture 110 and the slots 55 .
  • These irregular holes 105 are optional and have the main function of creating a bridge 115 between the irregular holes 105 and the slots 55 , which can magnetically saturate under the influence of the magnetic flux produced by the q-axis armature reaction.
  • the size of the irregular holes 105 can vary, and the shape can be modified to assure that the magnetic saturation of the bridge 115 is achieved.
  • the irregular hole 105 can follow the substantially rectangular contour 120 drawn with a dotted line and still have a comparable electromagnetic effect on the performance of the motor 10 .
  • the use of larger holes 105 reduces the weight and inertia of the rotor.
  • the shaft aperture 110 illustrated in FIG. 1 includes a key slot 125 .
  • the key slot 125 cooperates with a key and a second key slot formed as part of a shaft 130 (shown in FIG. 7 ) to assure that the lamination does not rotate with respect to the shaft 130 .
  • a key slot 125 cooperates with a key and a second key slot formed as part of a shaft 130 (shown in FIG. 7 ) to assure that the lamination does not rotate with respect to the shaft 130 .
  • FIG. 7 As one of ordinary skill will realize other systems and methods could be employed to inhibit unwanted relative rotation.
  • stackwise direction 33 is used herein to describe the direction in which a rotor core grows as additional laminations are stacked thereon. As such, the stackwise direction 33 generally extends along the axis of rotation or the central axis of the shaft 130 on which the laminations are attached.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates another lamination 135 suitable for use in forming the core 40 of the internal magnet rotor 20 of FIG. 7 .
  • the lamination 135 of FIG. 2 is similar to the lamination 50 of FIG. 1 .
  • the lamination 135 illustrated in FIG. 2 includes magnet slots 140 that are arcuate rather than V-shaped.
  • a single arcuate magnet 145 is positioned within the arcuate slots 140 , rather than two rectangular magnets 45 as illustrated in FIG. 1 .
  • other constructions could employ two or more magnets 45 within each slot 140 .
  • the magnet slots 55 , 140 of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 respectively are each non-linear slots. While linear magnets could be placed in the slots 55 , 140 , the slots themselves include a bend or turn that makes them non-linear. On a general basis, the magnet slot edges, the collection of which constitutes the boundary between the slot and the ferromagnetic material of the lamination, follow a geometrically non-linear trajectory or profile. Of course other non-linear shapes as well as linear (e.g., rectangular) slots could be employed if desired.

  • the number of pole portions is not indicative of the number of magnetic poles defined by the rotor as will be described in more detail with regard to FIGS. 21-30 .
  • the lamination 175 includes a shaft bore 110 similar to that of FIG. 1 and a plurality of circular apertures 100 between the shaft bore 110 and the V-shaped slots 55 .
  • a shaft bore arrangement could be employed if desired.
  • the irregular-shaped apertures 105 , 150 of the laminations 50 , 135 of FIGS. 1 and 2 have been omitted from the construction of FIG. 4 . However, these irregular-shaped apertures 105 , 150 could be added if desired.
  • Each of the pole portions 180 a - 180 f includes a plurality of apertures that act as magnetic flux barriers. Unlike the prior constructions, the flux barriers are not identical, i.e. they are different, in each pole portions 180 a - 180 f . However, they are substantially the same for diametrically opposite pole portions 180 a - 180 f . For example, the pole portions at the three o' clock position 180 a and the nine o' clock position 180 d are similar, the pole portions at the five o' clock position 180 b and the eleven o' clock position 180 c are similar, and the pole portions at the one o' clock position 180 c and the seven o' clock position 180 f are similar.
  • the first set of pole portions (three o' clock position 180 a and the nine o' clock position 180 d ) illustrated in FIG. 5 includes a central oval aperture or flux barrier 185 that is skewed slightly with respect to a radial line 190 that passes through the aperture 185 and intersects the long axis 90 .

  • the rotor laminations 175 can be axially flipped by 180 degrees and, for example, by doing so only once at the middle of the rotor stack, the equivalent of a one-step axial stagger skew is produced.
  • the optimal choice of the skew (angle) and means of implementation will be further discussed for example in connection with FIGS. 9-13 and FIGS. 36-38 .
  • the two oval side apertures or flux barriers 200 are positioned at either side of the central aperture 185 and are generally shorter than the central aperture 185 . Both side apertures 200 are skewed with respect to the center aperture 185 .

  • FIG. 4 illustrates one possible example for the geometrical proportions of the flux barriers positioning with respect to magnets and to the rotor outer surface. The dimensions are defined in a per unit (p.u.) system with reference to the length of one magnet out of the two positioned in each slot.
  • the p.u. dimensions correspond to a preferred construction that enhances motor performance. Variations of plus and minus 10 percent of the defined dimensions as well as relatively small variations of shape, as shown for example in FIGS. 8-10 are of course possible.

  • the calculated mechanical fundamental harmonic which corresponds to the electrical fundamental of a virtual 2-pole motor, is very small indeed and in the graph of FIG. 34 basically overlaps the zero-axis.
  • the integral order electrical harmonics up to the 9 th order are smaller than 0.05 pu with the higher order harmonics, such as the 11 th and the 13 th having slightly larger magnitudes.
  • the harmonic content of the step-waveform of FIG. 38 is rich but nevertheless the magnitude of each harmonic is relatively low, the overall result contributing to the sinusoidality of the air-gap magnetic field and the enhancement of motor performance.
  • the use of axial modules for the rotor core as shown for example in FIGS. 11 and 13 , further reduce the harmonic content of the motor global parameters, such as the back emf and the inductance.
  • FIG. 38 The results of FIG. 38 are based on the relative geometrical proportions illustrated in FIG. 4 . It should be noted that other configurations for the flux barriers and/or geometrical proportions can be employed in order to reduce certain harmonics, for example the 5 th and 7 th , while placing less emphasis, for example, on the 3 rd harmonic and its multiples, which are anyway eliminated from the point of view of line-to-line parameters of a motor employing a stator with a balanced 3-phase wye connection.
  • FIG. 35 shows the results of a similar analysis of the air-gap mmf, this time for a 4-pole motor employing a rotor core with the lamination of FIG. 17 and the preferred geometrical proportions specified in the text in connection with FIG. 17 .
  • the 0 degree reference which is placed halfway in between 1 and 2 o'clock, and the counter clockwise direction of the angular coordinate are also specified in FIG. 17 . Because both the triangular apertures 385 and the permanent slot end portions 355 are relatively wide towards the rotor surface, their effect on the adjacent air-gap portion is modeled as a “zero field” region.
  • the distribution of the mmf is identical under the two North poles and has a non-zero field opening, equivalent to a North pole arc opening, of approx. 60 mechanical degrees, i.e. 120 electrical degrees.
  • the distribution of the mmf is identical under the two South poles and has a non-zero field opening, equivalent to a North pole arc opening, of approx. 75 mechanical degrees, i.e. 150 electrical degrees.
  • this results in an average magnetic pole opening of 135 electrical degrees, which for a 3-phase motor with 24 slots and a fully pitched distributed winding, improves motor performance and efficiency.
  • FIG. 36 is a plot of the measured per phase back emf induced in the stator winding of a 4-pole motor with 24 equidistant stator slots and a fully pitched distributed winding.
  • the rotor core was built with laminations as those shown in FIG. 17 , which were grouped in two core modules as shown in FIG. 18 .
  • the Fourier analysis of the measured waveform which is plotted with solid line in FIG. 36 , indicates as the main components the fundamental, the 3 rd , 5 th and 7 th all of which are plotted with dashed line.
  • the two modules of rotor core 440 and 445 of FIG. 18 were staggered skewed, i.e. axially misaligned, by an angle equal to half the slot pitch.
  • the slot pitch in the example 24 stator slot motor is equal to 7.5 degrees.
  • the stagger skew of half a slot pitch is equivalent to a single step approximation of a continuous skew of one slot pitch.
  • the back emf of an example motor including the staggered rotor is shown in FIG. 37 .
  • the stator slotting harmonics are also present in the measured waveform of the line to line inductance of the example motor with a straight non-staggered rotor core (see the solid line of FIG. 38 ).
  • the staggering of the rotor core yields the dashed-line plotted smooth inductance waveform oscillating around the average value, which is also plotted with dashed line in FIG. 38 .
  • the illustrated inductance waveforms were measured at constant voltage and show a relatively small variation in between the minimum and maximum values. This is the results of the reduced saliency construction employing q-axis flux barriers.
  • the center-pole flux barrier which is virtually invisible from the point of view of the magnet main flux path, represents a convenient design feature for controlling the motor saliency.
  • the invention was described with reference to rotor laminations. It is understood that the concepts are generally applicable to other rotor components, such as axial modules made of another type of ferromagnetic material such as compacted powder steel or soft magnetic composites.
  • the invention was described with reference with rotors that are interior to the stator. It is understood that the concepts are generally applicable also to motors having the rotor exterior to the stator, a construction typically described as an inside-out design.
  • the invention provides, among other things, a new and useful rotor 20 for use in a motor 10 .
  • the rotor 20 includes internally-mounted magnets 45 and can be used, among other things, to replace a motor with permanent magnets mounted on the rotor surface and to enhance motor performance.
